Some Ice Skating Sons

What if they made it a pair skate?

“Gazing up at the cherry tree, Yuuri was radiant in violet robes and a golden-yellow sash as he stood in a swirl of pink blossoms. Viktor wished he had a camera then; to preserve Yuuri’s unassuming beauty and keep it with him: under his jacket, close to his heart.”

(Zanka - Chapter 8)

——

I’m still obsessing over Zanka by the wonderful @dreaming-fireflies, so instead of working on deadline things, my brain wanted to doodle Yuuri/Aoyagi from her fic instead. 8D 

Amazingly, the Japanese font I used here was written by “Aoyagi Kouzan” - it was meant to be!

AAAAAAANNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDD IT'S DONE!!! Victor drawn in the barbie outfit that my Victor BJD is wearing :D also shoutout to @arom-antix and @korruptbrekker who helped me on discord with precious and helpful tips and knowledge, it's only thanks to them i could find a lineart brush that actually looks good <3

the victor BJD lol the clothes he's wearing here is a genuine barbie figure skating outfit/costume (from the kelly dolls tho) that i put on him bc at the time i DIY-ed this victor bjd i couldn't find any other figure skating outfit his size. He did have skates too but i lost those and never put them on anyways bc he couldn't stand with them on and it looks nicer imho if he stands on his own VS using a stand lol

Binderary week 1 book 1! This is Until My Feet Bleed and My Heart Aches, a bangin' Victuuri fic by @kazliin.

This book was SO fun to make, because it's made with the work and materials of several people! All my love to @ziezie13 for sharing her typeset, which is drop-dead GORGEOUS <3 My favorite parts are the handwritten titles, the QR codes which link to recordings of the program music during certain scenes, and the mock-ups of the in-universe AO3 pages for Victor and Yuuri, which are labeled as "Figure Skating RPF." Genius!

The beautiful cover paper (which reminds me so much of an ice skating rink, so I just had to use it for this fic!) was a gift from either @humanalias or @aetherseer at Havencon 2022 (ACK I'm so sorry I can't remember - so many supplies were traded and gifted that fateful weekend! I didn't realize how important I would think it a year later to document who I got what from, but something for me to keep in mind at this year's Renegade retreat, mayhaps...and also now I know to pack as much paper as I can, to return to favor :3). So thank you so much to everyone who made this book possible! <333

ALSO y'all should absolutely check out Zie's copy here, which is printed on 11"x 17" sheets of paper, so each page is 8.5" x 11". In other words it's DOUBLE the size of my copy, which is already pretty chonky. She made it HUGE--it's hard to tell from the linked pics--but it's literally over 4.5 pounds of pure book (@simply-sithel said it best: you feel like an epic wizard holding it!)

mwuahh!! (˶꒡з꒡( ˵•́ ‿ •̀˵♡)✧˖° ♡
